Today I had the opportunity to visit a coffee plantation in Bali and finally taste the famous Kopi Luwak; and if you know me, you know I’m a coffee girlie so this was a big deal for me.

From berry to brew, it has one of the most unique journeys in coffee culture. Wild civets selectively eat the ripest coffee cherries, the beans go through a natural fermentation process, then they’re cleaned, sun-dried and slow roasted into a smooth, earthy, low-acidity cup of coffee. Truly Bali in a cup.

We also tasted local Balinese coffee blends — mainly arabica and robusta grown on the island — alongside so many different tea flavours. Honestly, such a wholesome experience and I’d go back again and again.

And the best part? The tasting was completely free. You only buy if you genuinely love what you tried, and every purchase helps support the local farmers and plantations. So yes… buy buy buy so we can all keep eating and drinking more organic goodness.
